cpstart-Start all Check Point services except cprid . cpstart works with the same options as cpstop .
cprestart-Combined cpstop and cpstart . Complete restart.
cpridstop, cpridstart, cpridrestart-Stop, start or restart cprid , the Check Point Remote Installation Daemon.

fw ctl iflist-Display interface list.
fw ctl arp [-n]-Display proxy arp table. -n disables name resolution.
cp_conf finger get-Display fingerprint on the management module.

Unable to Connect to Server Checkpoint R80

Unable to Connect to Server Checkpoint R80 Unable to Connect to Server A connection to the management server will fail if: A firewall between SmartConsole and the management server blocks Port 19009 -  port 19009 is used for a new R80 service. Allow traffic on this port for all clients and management servers. No GUI clients are assigned -  Open the Gaia Portal. If the First Time Configuration Wizard opens, complete it. If the First Time Configuration Wizard has already run, open  User Management > GUI Clients  and add a client. When using Multi-Domain Security Management, connect SmartConsole to the Multi-Domain Server and make sure the domains have GUI clients assigned to them. The required processes are not reachable -  Make sure the computer with SmartConsole installed can reach the IP address of the management server, and that these server processes are up and running: cpm fwm Operation time out  – Your connection ...

Configuring Proxy ARP for Manual NAT

Configuring Proxy ARP for Manual NAT Symptoms After creating a Manual Static NAT rule, Security Gateway does not answer the ARP Requests for the Static NATed IP address that was configured in the Manual NAT rule. Security Gateway replies to ARP requests with a wrong MAC address, mostly for the NAT traffic.  Introduction Let us consider the following scenario: Two networks ( Network_A  and  Network_B ) are separated by a Security Gateway (single Security Gateway or ClusterXL). On each network, there is a host ( Host_A  on  Network_A ,  Host_B  on  Network_B ). Let us assume, that  Network_A  represents the  Internal  network, and  Network_B  represents the  External  network. According to the existing standards, when  Host_B  needs to send data to  Host_A , an ARP Request for the MAC address of  Host_A  will be sent by  Host_B  to  Network...
